Let’s face it, tactical folders are an indispensible component of anyone’s kit; earning that standing because they are compact and weigh considerably less than the MK3 Mod 0 I use to carry. But, they fail! And, sometimes at the most inopportune moment, as consistent with Murphy’s law. Nothing surpasses a fixed blade knife for the more arduous tasks, its as plainly stated as I can make it. However, the problem with fixed blade knives is that they’re heavy and get in the way. So you end up carrying them on your belt or strapped to your leg around the calves…

If anything that I’ve said so far strikes home, take heart and check out Spyderco’s Enuff line of compact fixed blade knives. I had a chance to review the Leaf and walked away mightily impressed.

Update 12 Mar 2013: Spyderco offers a MOLLE adaptor kit that works with their product line. It sells for $29.95 + shipping
